Kneeling for a Second Chance Novel

---- Chapter 319 Sebastian just didn't open his eyes. His head was aching, and his eyes were throbbing slightly. Sebastian knew he was running a mild fever. By medical standards, he wasn't ready for discharge yet, especially after that cold shower last night. He looked at Valeria with amusement in his eyes. Before she could say anything, he leaned in close to her ear and whispered raspily, "I'm a quack doctor." Valeria got up and ignored him. It was his body. If he wanted to torment himself, then he could. Valeria went into the bathroom and washed up quickly.

When she caught sight of the marks on her chest in the mirror, she knew what had happened last night hadn't been a dream. She gave Selena a call. Selena said that a Mr. Scott had dropped off breakfast in the morning and was waiting outside to take her to school. Valeria asked Selena to hand the phone to Calvin. "Mr. Scott, I'm surprised you're back in Broburgh City this quickly. Did you already wrap up your work?" Calvin rubbed his nose at Valeria's teasing. Then, he cleared his throat somewhat guiltily. "Ms. Neal, thank you for asking. I'll take good care of Ms.

Selena." ---- When Valeria came out of the bathroom, Sebastian was standing right outside. He rested his chin on her shoulder and leaned in gently, wrapping her fully in his arms. She tried to push him away. Feeling the burning heat of his chest, she knew the fever had hit him overnight. He hadn't even recovered, yet he still took acold shower. Her expression turned frosty as she said sternly, "Let me go." She couldn't push him off in the end. Sebastian only held her tighter, pressing his feverish body against her. "You don't even care about your own health," Valeria mentioned.

"You're squeezing me by hugging me like that. I don't like it." "Then, be my boss. Order me around every day from now on." Sebastian's voice was hoarse. He pressed his forehead against Valeria's neck, as if he were searching for a trace of coolness. Alow contented murmur came from his throat. The best medicine in the world was already in his arms. Valeria's lashes lowered slightly . He was squeezing her for dear life. She could feel his hot breath against the skin of her neck, warming her up. Softly, she asked, "Who would dare be your boss, Mr.

Grant?" At 9:00 am, the temperature in Slate City beat down on them. ---- The sun was blazing, but the sky was a pure, clear blue. It was stifling but dry, completely different from the year- round humidity of Broburgh City. On their way to the city hall, Valeria told Sebastian to have a lawyer draw up a prenuptial agreement. She was just an ordinary woman. Though she had saved up some money over these years, and Etoile was doing decently well, the company's yearly turnover couldn't compare to what the Grant Group made in minutes. She understood the gap between them.

And for a company like the Grant Group, even in a marriage alliance, assets had to be documented properly by lawyers. "| declare that all my personal assets, including funds, stocks, bonds, and everything else, will be shared between us after marriage ." Sebastian pulled the car to a stop in front of the building. "Everything I own will be yours."
